Operation Identification

The Moore City Council approved the Parks Master Plan on February 6th. The plan gives staff a framework to work within and plans can now be made for implementation. Funding sources will have to be found for many of the projects but many items are already in the works. Citizens will see improvements in many city parks and a Championship Disc Golf Course should open in Little River Park by the end of the year. The master plan is available to view by clicking the link below.

Moore was founded during the land-run of 1889. The early settlers came on train, horseback, wagons, and some, on foot. According to local historians, the town's original name was "Verbeck" as designated by the railroad company. However, a railroad employee named Al Moore, reported to be either a conductor or a brakeman, lived in a boxcar at the camp and had difficulty receiving his mail. He painted his name - "Moore" - on a board and nailed it on the boxcar. When a postmaster was appointed, he continued to call the settlement Moore.
